"Call a council meeting at once." Rio ordered Liam.
Liam was surprised to see his brother's car who just arrived earlier. He was not informed about his return. What's with the surprise return? what's with the council meeting?
Calling a council meeting means that all the mafia elders and leaders around the country will gather. The last time they had a council meeting was when Rio proclaimed Aisha as the mafia heiress. Wait! Is he going to announce the new heir? Yes, that should be the reason since Aisha is already dead!
"But brother, this is an abrupt meeting, I doubt that the council would make it in an hour." Liam answered.
"Then tell them to come tonight."
"But brother, what's the reason of this sudden assembly?"
"You'll know it tonight."
"Okay then if that's what you want. You should get a rest first, you look so tired." Liam turned around ready to leave.
"Ehm." Rio nodded.
"Archie, get a rest as well. It might get nasty later during the council meeting." Rio ordered.
"I understand." Then Archie went to the other building where his room is located.
Meanwhile, Liam went to his office and sent a cryptic message to every elders and leaders all over the country. After sending the code to the 120 council members, he took his phone out and dialed a number.
"How's the situation out there?" he asked.
"Stable, Sir."
"good. you should stop the operation for the meantime. My brother had just arrived. You must be extra careful for now. I'll call to let you know when to resume, okay?"
"Yes boss." Then the call ended.
Unknown to Demetrius, his brother Liam had been doing an operation behind his back. Liam needs to increase his territory. but for now, Rio doesn't need to know it yet. he was planning to surprise his brother after he succeed.
But what kind of business is he doing?
Meanwhile, Sherry drove back home. she was hoping that Silver isn't home yet.
After all the revelation that she heard earlier, she was determined to know more about her past. She needs to start investigating without alerting Silver.
"Is Silver home yet?" she asked the maid.
"I haven't seen him yet, Madam." She courtly answered.
"Ahh, thank you. let me know once he arrives, okay?"
"Yes Madam." Then the maid went back to the kitchen. Sherry hurriedly walk towards Silver's study room. She might be able to find something out there.
she went near the office table and carefully browse every single document that was piled up. However, everything was just about Silver's shipping business. Then she opened the first drawer, the second then the third and fourth. she didn't find any helpful information. She sighed frustratingly. She looked around the study room, there's a lot of stack documents. Will she be able to finish all these before Silver arrives?
Ah, she didn't open the last drawer yet. she stooped down and pulled it out. There she saw a bulge envelope. She opened it. She was surprise to see a picture of a child. Who could it be? She looked closer. It looks like it was taken years ago. The child is so beautiful. Looks like she's around six or seven years old maybe? She wasn't sure.
Then she looked at the other pictures, it was the same child, wearing another dress. Her smiles, it was genuine and so innocent. But who could this child be? Is it Silver's daughter? Their daughter? Wait! Does she had a child before? Her own thoughts brought shivers to her spine. But Silver never spoke of a child before!
She was lost in her own thoughts. Suddenly she heard some voices outside the room. Silver! She panicked! She took one photo and hid it under her sleeves as she run around looking for a place to hide.
Tick! The door opened. Her heart was beating fast, praying that Silver won't notice her presence.
"Did you say he has a daughter?" Silver knitted his brow.
"Yes. Since you told me to investigate about him, I immediately went to the North State. According to the people there, he has a daughter."
"But that's impossible. He never married!"
"The child is not his flesh and blood. According to my source, he adopted her when she was young and even proclaimed her to be his heir."
"Do you have any information about who that child is? That child might be our last card against Rio." Silver balled his fist. he doesn't intend to harm the old man yet, but he kept provoking him. Might as well hit two birds at the same time, he thought.
"There's not much information about her. But her name is Aisha, Aisha Mikasa."
Silver's eyes widened as well as Sherry who was hiding around the corner.
"What? What did you say the name was?" He can't believe what he heard. "Did you say the name was Aisha?"
"Yes Boss."
As soon as he confirmed, Silver's victorious laugh echoed around the study room.
What a coincidence!
"Oh, fate must have been favoring me. Who would have thought that my enemies where all gathered in just one place? Those old folks and their beloved son and daughter, ha-ha-ha!" he cannot contain his happiness.
"You don't have to investigate further. That woman is dead anyway."
"Wait, what? does Silver knew Aisha? H-he didn't possibly killed her, right?" Sherry held her breath when she heard Silver. Ah, poor Rio!
"I understand boss. I must go now then." Then the guy went out.
"Who would have thought that I've been hitting two birds at the same time?" He strides towards the window set but he paused when he noticed something odd at his table. But he chose to shrug it off. The thought of Rio and Aisha and that old man Omni and his grandson Ethan clouded his mind.
Destiny must have been on his side. But how could destiny be so playful? He took his phone out and dialed a number.
"Do you have any news about Stacy?" he asked the person on the other line.
"Call your daughter and tell her not to come back anymore." he continues, "No more but's for you. just do what I say if you still love your daughter. She'll be in danger once she comes back." Then he hung up.
"So if that woman is Stacy's twin sister, then---- argghh... I thought she only had one daughter? then they should never meet!" Silver's eyes glint a murderous gaze. What kind of coincidental destiny is this? he heaved a heavy sigh.
After the call, Silver stared at the documents on his table for a minute before he totally went out. he should go and see his wife Sherry. He's itching for a celebration.
As soon as she heard Silver's footstep leaving the room, Sherry run towards the door. She slowly opened it and inspected the outside surrounding. She can't be seen by Silver or else she must prepare herself to be beaten, again.
She hurriedly went out and went directly to the living room but to her surprise, she met Silver along the way.
"Silver!" she was frightened.
"Sherry? Where have you been? I have been looking for you everywhere!" his tone was a bit surprise.
"I, I just came out from the library." She faked a smile. Silver creased a brow. "Why are you looking for me?"
"Ah, nothing. I just want to see you. would you like to eat outside?"
"Is there an occasion?" she acts innocently.
"Ehm, you can say that." He chuckles.
"Okay. I'll just go and change then. I'll be up in a minute." Then Sherry hurried upstairs. Silver's gaze never left her.
Silver raised his brow in question. He went to the library earlier however, he didn't see her. Now he's thinking.
Sherry closed the door immediately while holding onto her chest. That was so close! Her feet suddenly trembled. What is that feeling for? Why is she scared all of a sudden? She brought out the photo that was hidden under her sleeve. After loking at it, she secured it in her bag. Then she recalled what she heard.
"Demetrius, Aisha, Stacy… and the dead woman?" Sherry can't understand any of it. suddenly she felt her head burst in pain as bits of memory flashes before her eyes. her heart beating fast then tears flowed from her eyes.
"Momma!"
"I love you momma!"
"Bye momma!"
Glimpses of a child calling her mom flashed before her but she can't see the face at all. Her headache and heartache becomes unbearable so she screamed her heart out while clutching her hair with her hands. The last thing she remembered was that Silver was knocking on the door, screaming her name before she totally passed out.
